I did some tests, and it seems that you can avoid the problem with libc_MIN_KERNEL_SUPPORTED = 2.6.16 Higher minimum versions don't work without patching. > (FWIW, I kept disable-sanity.) I never needed to disable the sanity checks except for linuxthreads. They are there for a reason, so better not to disable them. > So I suppose there’s more patching required It would be desirable to take this opportunity to drop the compatibility cruft from libc, and that requires the patch. But the patch isn't upstream yet. I never got around to sending it. Finn
